The Procrastinators Book Club discussion

RULES
✧ Members will be broken out into up to 3-5 separate teams (or go solo) before the start date (November 1st). You will work together to complete a series of tasks together and complete as many of them as you wish.
✧ Books must be read and reviewed from November 1st through December 31st. Any books or audiobooks started before November 1st or finished after December 31st will not count.
✧ If you read an Audiobook version of a book convert the hours to pages using this site: https://alamantus.itch.io/time-to-page or use the print equivalent on Goodreads.
✧ Graphic/Manga novels are accepted but will only count for half of the listed page count. They have to be on the Goodreads database.
✧ You must post at least 3 status updates OR a review. It doesn't have to be super detailed but try to not just say "this was good" for the book to count.
✧ For prompts: if it doesn't fit, it doesn't fit, and it will not count.
✧ Minimum Lengths:
• Books: 150 pages
• Graphic Novels: 200 pages (halved=100 pages)
• Audiobooks: 150 pages (use GR print equivalent length)

POINT SYSTEM
+1 point for every book that has been read and reviewed that correlates with a category
+2 points for participating in a buddy read (must take place in the group)
+3 for one completed category
+4 points for reading/participating in a group read (must take place in the group)
+5 points for every 1,000 pages read
Note 1: Mods keep track of all points in a shared Google Sheets spread to keep everything as organized as possible.
Note 2: You must actively participate in a buddy or group read for the points to count. Lack of participation means no points! This means commenting your updates in the designated thread for that book.

LINKS TO SPREADSHEET
To help track your team points, strategize and communicate, we've created individual team spreadsheets and team discord channels. Any errors within it are mine—please let me know if you spot anything wonky.

Spreadsheet:
*We won't be making Discord channels UNLESS you request it.

Reminder: Mods will NOT use your spreadsheet to record points. This is for your team purposes only! Please make sure to post an accurate completion post or we will not count it!

Hi girlies do y’all want a discord channel made so we don’t have to navigate the pain that is goodreads threads all the time 🥲

Yeah sure! A discord channel would be a lot easier lol

Since some teams wanted to use Discord, it is easier to make channels for everyone there.

If you aren't already part of the Discord, here is a link to join: https://discord.com/invite/3hBXPyt2Fa

Winter Wars channels are at the bottom.

Hi! Took me a minute to find which team I'm on because this thread doesn't have a participants list. But I'm here! I also found the Discord channel so I'll be active over there as well. Looking forward to playing with y'all!

Oops
Thanks for mentioning that, I obviously hadn't noticed I haven't posted it.

Wrong year but I got ya 😅 you're just living in the future haha

UPDATED

Hey everyone! Just making a clarifying statement about It’s Giving…Thanks #3: Read a book written by an Indigenous author. What is meant by this statement is this dictionary definition:

(of people) inhabiting or existing in a land from the earliest times or from before the arrival of colonists.

Because ethnicity and history can be really tricky to determine sometimes, if you aren't 100% sure about something, feel free to ask and we can work through it together. I wanted this prompt to include indigenous groups that we don't often think of as indigenous, like African tribal groups, Polynesian or Micronesian Islander peoples, or even the Welsh, Gaelic, or Basque peoples of Europe. This isn't a gatekeeping space for indigenous identity, but there needs to be some clear evidentiary justification behind the claim :)
